The Confederation of African Football (CAF) is set to introduce reforms aimed at preventing a repeat of the issues that affected the AFCON 2025 final.

CAF president Patrice Motsepe said some of the proposed measures will be presented to the General Assembly, while others will be implemented by the Executive Council.

“We’ve already implemented some of the changes and resolutions to make sure that what happened on the final day doesn’t happen again,” Dr Motsepe said.

“Some of those changes would have to go to the Ordinary General Assembly, but others we’re implementing through the Exco.”

Speaking at a media briefing during a working visit to Morocco, he added that the reforms were developed with support from FIFA.

“It’s interesting when lawyers say some of those things were not foreseen by the rules. These are lawyers who work for FIFA at the highest level, so we learned to identify areas where we could have done things differently and better. We already did a lot of good work,” he said.

Motsepe’s visit to Morocco follows a similar trip to Senegal earlier in the week.

Meanwhile, Senegal has challenged CAF’s decision to strip them of the AFCON 2025 title at the Court of Arbitration for Sport.
